When I saw life killing me, A thought crossed my head: I had spent my entire life chasing horizons. Horizons which I could never touch.

As death flashed before my eyes,

So did my birth.

When I came into this world,

My mother smiled

And as she looked into my eyes,

My heart smiled back.

I then knew what joy meant.

I was curious to know

where I came from,

how life was instilled inside me

in her womb.

Yet,

My heart chose to smile

For it knew,

That life lived itself,

In that very moment.
